Award-Winning IB Mathematics SL Tutors

...grades 6-12 and college in a variety of subjects since! I specialize in mathematics and science tutoring as well as standardized exam preparation. In the past, I have helped students achieve significant improvements and success on the SAT, SHSAT, Regents and other exams! I truly believe education is a mutual learning and teaching opportunity and enjoy helping my students achieve a thorough understanding (those "Aha!" moments) and appreciation of whatever they choose to study! In...

...students want to learn and that one of the largest reason students begin to struggle in a class is because they have fallen behind in some way and therefore lost confidence. My main goal as a tutor will be to restore their confidence in the subject by providing complete understanding of concepts as well as preparing them for the most complex examples so that they will not be caught off guard in the class. I...

...receiving and the giving thereof, and Im looking forward to being able to help your student (or you yourself) grow in the field you are currently grappling with. I have been fortunate to do well in my own academic pursuits: earning a Bachelor's in International Affairs & History from Georegetown University and a Master's in Education from Valparaiso University. I have taught for four years in a few different departments, but mostly in the social...

...using that strategy because they were encouraged to discover it for themselves and they understand why it works. Ultimately, I enjoy teaching because both the student and I can simultaneously improve in a process that never ceases to make us better. When I'm not teaching, I enjoy pretty much any activity that gets me outside, especially if that outside happens to be in the woods or near the beach (I am from Florida after all...)....

...hospitality to TV programming and distribution. Years of management experience taught me the importance of teaching, practice, sound strategy and motivation to improve any performance. I also have an advanced math aptitude that I put to use in business analysis, problem-solving (for fun!) and tutoring middle- and high-school students. I have tutored all subjects and strategies for ACT and SAT test prep. I am also the parent of teenagers (boy and girl), who have helped...

...also taught underprivileged high school students as part of an NGO. I taught math, computer science and english speaking skills. This is why Mathematics is my favourite subject to tutor. I am also comfortable tutoring for standardised tests such as the GRE and SAT. My goal is not merely to teach facts and formulas but rather to help the student develop the intuition behind them. I value critical thinking and problem solving skills and that...

...past year I have been tutoring full-time and could not have enjoyed it more. The focus of my tutoring has been the Math and Science sections of ACT, the Math section of the SAT and the quantitative reasoning section of the GRE, along with subject tutoring in high school and early college Math, Chemistry and Physics. I currently tutor those standardized tests along with math from pre-algebra through calculus II, physical science, physics and chemistry....

...concepts one more time. For the next two months, I will be available for on-line and in person tutoring in the Richmond area for about 10 hours per week. I am flexible for the next two months and I would be willing to do more hours if needed. Preferably afternoons or evenings would be better, but some mornings could also work. After those two months, I will be available for 5-10 hours a week for...

I graduated from the University of Florida with Bachelor's degrees in Biomedical Engineering and Biochemistry. My overarching drive in academics has always been to consistently challenge myself in my studies whilst also serving as a mentor to others.... Everyone has the capacity to gain mastery over a subject. I just have to continue finding the right way to convey it.... Asking questions and gauging the student's ability by the answers that they give. Then, as a...

...and have experience tutoring students in Biology, Chemistry and Math. I also enjoy helping students prepare for standardized exams for undergraduate and graduate school admission. In addition to my private tutoring activities, I was also a TA to an introductory science course at Cornell. In this position, I lectured weekly to a section of 15 undergraduate students and learned how to engage students in course material. In my free time, I enjoy cooking new recipes,...

...involved in soccer. This hardship increased due to procrastination. Procrastination is a nasty habit that haunts everyone. That is more reason why I should tutor others. I have a deeper understanding why students struggle in their subjects. I know where the roadblocks are and how to overcome them. I no longer have trouble hearing ever since I undergone ear surgery and changed my life dramatically. I still feel like I am playing catch up, but...

...with students in the areas of Algebra 1, Geometry, and Biology. In college, I was also involved in tutoring, working with students in a range of subjects from College Algebra to Calculus in math, and all sorts of science courses, including Genetics, Physics, and Molecular Cell Biology. I tutor a wide range of math and science classes, but my favorites are Algebra, Calculus, and Physics. When working with a student, I have found that showing...

...mathematics and science courses. However, I am most passionate about Biology. I believe that every student interested in science should know the basics of the complex biological systems and how they function. Many students lose their interest in science because of the lack of understanding of basic concepts. I think it is my responsibility to help them grow their interest in science by explaining those concepts. I believe in the importance of enjoying what you...

...real-world experience that can benefit technically-minded students prepare for careers in science and engineering. As a Tau Beta Pi graduate from an Ivy League university, I recognize that hard work and devotion to your studies will allow you to achieve your goals. I will work with each student to set appropriate learning targets whether s/he is looking to supplement school or learning to prepare for admission exams. As a father of two teenage boys, I...

...can help you out! As a new tutor, I am looking forward to tutoring Algebra the most. In the realm of math, I find that I am the most comfortable with this subject and that my expertise can come in handy to others. I strive to be a tutor who is comfortable with different learning paces and techniques. I want to adapt to my students to provide the best learning experience for both parties. Outside...

...last five years and have taught several subjects including Math (Algebra, Trigonometry, SAT, and SAT Subject Tests), Physics (High school and SAT Subject Tests), SAT Writing, and Economics (High school and AP level). I am extremely passionate about teaching and have taught students of several age groups (12 through 19). I would love to continue this passion by tutoring you! Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I look forward to helping you...

...with a B.S. in mathematics this past May. Whether it's test prep, math, or writing, any skill or problem can be broken down into small steps and tackled bit by bit. This makes hard problems far less scary and produces steady reward for the solver. My role in your study will be to help you find the small components in a problem and tackle each one, and provide a patient voice of encouragement for you....

...peers with their math homework in various levels of math. I tutor many math subjects, including elementary math, pre-Algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, pre-Calculus and Calculus 1. Math has always been my favorite subject, and I like to tutor math because I think anyone is capable of doing math if they are taught in a method they can understand. I like to work with students to find an approach to math problems that they...
